LIQUOR DEALERS In DOUBT.
Few Applications for Licenses Now
being Made-An Appeal % the Courts
Expected.


The police are receiving few applications for
liquor licenses at this time, although the new
license year begins next Tuesday. The police
think that the saloon-keepers are experiencing no
little trouble in obtaining the necessary majority
Of both house-holders and property to their
applications which, in the opinion OF some OF the
ofhcials, Is due to the efforts Of the temperance
people to decrease the number of drinking places
on the other hand, is claimed that the new reg.
ulations affecting the grOcers accounts for the
small number Of applications DrummerS and
commercial agents selling cigars, tobacco aud
liquors complain that business at present Is at
standstill, and that all orders are subject to the
action OF the Commissioners on their applications
for licenses. GrocerS are anxious To hear the de-
cision OF the Commissioners as 70 whether by
dividing grocery store into two apartments with
partition the premises win come within the OBJ
Jecon or not; and until that decision is rendered
the grocers will not take any stepstoward securing
their licenses any further than getting the sigma
lures TO their applications It was stated to-day
that the liquor men were combining to fight the
Commissioners In the courts, and that unleos some
changes are made In the new regulations an EFFORT
Will be made to get case before tho courts at an
early date.

ment among English politicians Of all classes.
Even the conservative Ndnddrd admits the mis-

John c. New, OF Indianapolis, who Is chairman
OF the republican committee OF Indiana and q
member OF the republican national committee, Is
at the Gilsey House, where he was asked yester-
day about the republican national convention OF
next year. Among other things he said:
1.-THE people at Chicago want the convention to
be convened there very much. They have built q
rne hotel and ccnvertion hall especially for ma
ti0nal conventions. They treated the ma
tional committee badly there in 1854.
but / presume our people in Indiana
would rather have the convention in Chicago
than In New York because more OF them could
get to Chicago would not be In favor OF Gin

Indianapolis should want the convention / should,
OF course, favor that city. Our hotel accommO.

TOml1nsOn Hall Will hold 4, 500 persona Year
after year there - complaint that too many
persons 60 to the conventions and that they are
too crowded with outsiders other than delegates.
Yet every time new convention Is called it seems
to be the effort to get larger place TO hold the
sessions. There has never been 0 republican
national convention In New York. They have
been held In Philadelphia Baltimore Cincinnati,
